Flip Flop: Republicans were for Hillary Clinton, before they were against her!!!

Republicans should be having a harder time trashing Hillary Clinton if the press did their job reminding them of all times they praised her as Secretary of State. I’m shocked
no one’s brought this up yet. So let's take a look at before Hillary become Secretary of State:

CNN: Republicans praised the prospect of Secretary of
State Hillary Clinton Sunday: Former Nixon and Ford Secretary of State Henry
Kissinger said Clinton would be an “outstanding” selection - “She is a lady of
great intelligence, demonstrated enormous determination and would be an
outstanding appointment." Tennessee
Rep. Marsha Blackburn said “I think that she is well qualified. She does have a
certain standing in the world that is required in order to be able to demand
the respect from other countries to deal with issues that are going to be
affecting not only us but other of our allies, our trading partners. And I
think that she would be a well placed in that position.” Sen. Jon Kyl of
Arizona said “It seems to me she's got the experience, she's got the
temperament for it," he said on Fox News Sunday. “She would be
well-received around the world."

Bipartisan praise for Hillary Clinton as she moves on: Kind
words are coming from everyone - including Republicans. Rep. Paul Ryan lauded both
Hillary and Bill Clinton on NBC's Meet the Press, arguing, "Look, if we
had a Clinton presidency, if we had Erskine Bowles as Chief of Staff of the
White House or president of the United States, I think we would have fixed this
fiscal mess by now. Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., the top-ranking Republican on the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee, took to "Fox News Sunday" to run
interference on Hillary Clinton's behalf (about Benghazi) noting, "The
deception around the Benghazi issue did not come from the State Department and
on others...It was more of a White House political operative deception … not
from the State Department."Condoleezza Rice: “Former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice
said Clinton has done a ‘fine’ job. The problem isn’t Hilary Clinton,
who’s great.” The Hill: Former Secretary of Homeland Security Tom Ridge
said he always had “productive’” meetings with Sec. Clinton when he was in the
Cabinet. Jeb Bush: ‘These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have
earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.’” Gov. Mitch Daniels: “She
is comprehensively experienced and has advantages that some of the other
contenders would have to scramble to match in terms of her exposure to the
world and… foreign policy.” Gov. Mike Huckabee described Sec. Clinton as
“smart” and “tough.” ‘She’s a policy genius,’ he said. Jon Huntsman:
I’ve worked around Hillary Clinton while serving as ambassador to China, and
all I can tell you as a Republican is she’s pretty good. She’s smart. She’s
hardworking. She – she relates to all kinds of people, and I was very, very
impressed working with her as a Republican. Gov. Perry, on Sec. Clinton’s
stance on Syria: “I think on that issue she was closer to being right than she
has been on some other ones.” Gen. Petraeus, on Sec. Clinton: “She’d make
a tremendous President.” Clinton was ‘extraordinarily resolute, determined and
controlled’ in the wake of the attack. Sam Brownback: “Thank you, Madam
Secretary. I appreciate the way you represent us around the world and your high
energy levels.” Jim DeMint: “You've, I think, taken an international leadership
role in, I think, raising the pressure levels in Iran.” Lindsey Graham: “I
think she’s represented our nation well. She is extremely well respected
throughout the world, handles herself in a very classy way and has a work ethic
second to none.’” McCain: “She is a great representative of America, kind
of a rock star status, visited more countries than any other secretary of
state.”

One Man's Challenge to a Party Bent on Destruction

Politics: Just a guy tired of "compromising." Stop encouraging Republicans when it comes to their failed ideology.
I was once a liberal radio talk host. Played co-host to Vicki McKenna, a complete liar who can't can't stop filling the airwaves with mindless babble.
I'm someone who enjoys the the painful smiles of conservatives as they struggle to deny the avalanche of facts tumbling their way. They seem preoccupied with spelling and grammar.
Real Estate: I also hosted a real estate radio show.
